I agree with this because spaying and shots alone cost a bundle.
I have to add that when searching for a pup, don't base your decision on price of pup. It's the breeder, the breeder, the breeder. Buying from a reputable breeder (who may charge more for pups) will save a LOT of money in the long run.
